  18. WORK PACKAGE 3 WP3: Identification and support of Grid enhanced applications Manager: CIEMAT Identifies, selects and customizes relevant applications and tools suitable for the Grid dissemination process in Biomedical, High Energy Physics, Climate and e-Education Contributes to the definition of a common application interface with other research fields to encourage and help scientific and technology communities to easily migrate their applications to the EELA e-Infrastructure Task 3.1 – Biomedical Applications Task 3.2 – HEP Applications Task 3.3 – Additional applications (e-Education and Climate) Trieste, GRID Workshop, 17.02.2006

  29. Conclusions and outlook • The progress made by EELA in such a short amount of time is quite impressive • the sentence written in the EELA press release “By means of the action of a group of very skilled and highly motivated people…” is in fact very true! • However, many challenges are still in front of us: • extension of the pilot testbed • setting-up of ROC and User Support • setting-up of Certification Authorities in Latin America • porting of additional and new applications • the first deliverables (to be due already in february !) • create the EELA “brand” and the “team spirit” • A chinese proverb says: “A long journey begins with a single step”. The EELA KoM was our first step. Trieste, GRID Workshop, 17.02.2006
